The Register has an opinion piece on Sun’s future. With the stock price holding steady at $3, why would anyone worry? Sun’s market cap roughly equals its cash holdings. So the company is at a point where everybody could just call it a day and go home. The speculation centers on how that will play out.

Silicon Valley has a new parlour game: what’s going to happen to Sun after the cuts? Rumours suggest it will merge with EMC, that HP or IBM will take it over, that Fujitsu will buy its hardware business, or even that the StorageTek storage business unit will be spun off. Do Sun’s leaders want to be redeemed or to retire?
